Ashenwolfe Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 One of my favroute ways to demonstrate my support for any game/film/cartoon is to cosplay as characters from it, so my question why not warframe too? Basically i'm planning to cosplay as loki at a future MCM Expo (London) and i was hoping for advice on how to go about it. My current plans are to buy a cheap trench coat to use as a base for the costume, please give me your thoughts on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zareek Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) I remember someone making a volt costume, it looked pretty good. Maybe he can help you here is the link! https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/83673-volt-cosplay/?hl=%2Bvolt+%2Bcosplay Also, goodluck! I hope it'll work out for you. And if you end up posting something, Ill definately follow it! Edited August 4, 2013 by Zareek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphyx Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Cool, make sure you get some pictures of it, obviously. I don't do and am not too interested in cosplay but it's always nice to see it. Check this out http://www.youtube.com/show/projectcosplay for some possible ideas/inspiration. It's sponsored(?) by RED5 (the developers of Firefall) but has non-Firefall related cosplay as well. The trenchcoat sounds like a good start. Not sure how much skill or experience you have with embroidery or crafting this sort of stuff and I am in no way knowledgeable in it to give any advice. Personally I'd probably just try to find some sort of paint for clothes to get those patterns Loki has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luciferiansama Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Already thought about doing a saryn, looks if it you'll have to build the armour in seperate pieces, i checked out that guys volt costume it's not bad. He should have bondo'ed that helmet a bit more to smooth it all out hide all the seam lines and S#&$.Looks like you should be using a body suit aka a zentai or TK undersuit would work well. (storm trooper for the non costume people) i'd say make a cast of your chest to get the armour fit right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
